Anyone with a manual driving mom?
In my country, it's rare to have a female driver that is confident on the road. (don't ask my why such an outdated mentality exists but l guess you have to blame the women holding traffic and the guys who think they're top notch for that). It's even rarer for a woman to be a 'skilled ' driver much less a manual one. My mom has been driving way before l was born and she ticks all the boxes.
I remember a few years ago, in my early teens, my mum and l were coming from a church located on the hill. She was driving a manual Hiace , the low top narrow ones, and it is a relatively low van. She was turning in the middle road and got stuck in a ditch on the slope.l don't know why that happened but she probably had a lot on her mind at the time. I don't 't know how many years l have to be able to pull it off but she did. This amazing woman rocked the vehicle back and forth (think of the bouncing bmw cars but doing it with going in gear and out) and got us out there. Something like that a auto couldn't have gotten out of that if it didn't have the "bouncy" mode; probably needed something to pull it too. It also helped that it was an awd. Wasn't interested in manual back then but that there still amazed me.
Edit from draft: I made this without realizing it was mother's day lol
